Frozen Berries and Vanilla Yogurt Pops

Frozen Berries and Vanilla Yogurt Pops

By //  by Life In Pleasantville 4 Comments

I love summer and I love summer foods.  I think we tend to live on BBQ meals, cold ones and tons of frozen pops.  Since we seem to inhale every frozen pop around in a matter of a day,  I started to make these super easy and delicious Frozen Berries and Vanilla Yogurt Pops.   Making these frozen pops is really too easy.  The kids will enjoy making them and creating so many different flavours.  I used strawberries and blueberries (fresh) because they are our …

Getting the Kids In the Kitchen + Our Snack Recipe

By //  by Life In Pleasantville Leave a Comment

  Beyond recipes, let's talk about kids, food, and kids and food. And because I can't help myself, I've included a fun recipe, too. Do you allow your kids in the kitchen? I'm not talking about letting them over the threshold to pour themselves a glass a milk or grab a snack. Do you let them create and be a part of the cooking process? Sure, they're messy, and the odds are high that occasionally they will create something you may need to dispose of, discreetly of …

Spicy Chicken Puff Recipe

By //  by Life In Pleasantville Leave a Comment

This tasty treat came about one day after I rummaged through the fridge and found leftover chicken, some puff pastry, and a block of cream cheese. Sometimes the best snacks come about when you raid the fridge to see what you can find. A spiced cheese topping bakes right into the puff pastry, adding loads of really great flavor for you to pile your fresh ingredients on top of. While I went with a kind of spicy riff here along with avocado and fresh tomatoes, you could also try substituting …

The Easiest Applesauce You’ll Every Make

By //  by Candace Sampson 2 Comments

I love the changing of the seasons, especially Fall, with it's red, orange, and yellow leaves. It's such a show-off. Kind of like this slow cooker applesauce. It takes the very best apples the season has to offer and mixes them into this incredibly easy recipe. So easy that you'll wonder why you ever made apple sauce on the stove top in the first place. What I love most about this recipe is that it uses more than just one type of apple. With so many delicious apples to choose from this time …

Dinner On The Go: When the Dining Room is a Minivan

By //  by Kelly Given Williams 5 Comments

With four kids under 13, I try to keep the extracurricular activities to one or two per child at any given time. But when you multiply that by the number of kids in my family, it still means we are out during dinner time multiple times a week. On these days, dinner is served in our family's dining room #2, also known as the back seat of the van. Dinner on the go is a regular occurrence for many families, and short of hitting the drive-thru window three nights of seven, busy families need more …
